Lua library for managing title strings.

isInterwiki

isInterwiki(String prefix, bool onlyInterlang = false): bool

Checks wether prefix is a valid interwiki prefix. I.e. wether the prefix is registered in mw.site.interwikiMap()

If onlyInterlang is true, it will only check for language prefixes ('en', 'pt'…), excluding website prefixes ('commons', 'wikiquote'…).

Returns true if prefix is a registered interwiki prefix, false else.

isInterlangPrefix

isInterlangPrefix(String prefix): bool

Checks wether prefix is a valid interlanguage prefix. I.e. wether the prefix is registered in mw.site.interwikiMap() and is known by mw.language.isKnownLanguageTag().

Equivalent to isInterwiki(prefix, true).

Returns true if prefix is a registered interlanguage prefix, false else.

isNamespace

isNamespace(String prefix): bool

Checks wether the prefix is a valid namespace prefix on Meta. I.e. wether the prefix is registered in mw.site.namespaces

Returns true if prefix is a registered interwiki prefix, false else.

langToWiki

langToWiki(String lang): String|bool

Gives a valid interwiki prefix for the requested language code.

Most interwiki prefixes are actually language codes, but some language code match with another interwiki. E.g. 'pt-br' language code matches with 'pt' interwiki prefix.

Returns the interwiki prefix related to the given language if possible, or false if none is known.

• first one is all prefixes which are recognized as interwikis, joined with colon

Prefixes page name with Special:MyLanguage.
